The brazen, unbelievable stupidity of the law and law enforcement continues to surprise even me. One of the recent incidents which has my senses reeling, is a case where a currently unidentified fourteen year old New Jersey girl posted pictures of herself, consisting of 30 “indecent” images, on MySpace.
Certainly you can argue that her actions merit some kind of stern punishment by her parents and a harsh conversation on the sheer stupidity of performing such a naive act: but the government’s response is utterly nonsensical! This fourteen year old girl, who was not manipulated to do what she did, was not endangered by anyone but herself, is being charged with various laws against child pornography (presumably for creating and distributing).
Let that fact sink in for a second: She’s been arrested and charged with felony counts of child pornography for posting pictures of herself!
If convicted, she will have to register for the rest of her life as a sex offender! She will have no right to vote, own a firearm, etc., and will have to identify herself on every job application she ever fills out – for the rest of her life – as a felon!
How damnably demented, tyrannical and incomprehensibly brainless are our police and prosecutors? Are they really ignorant of the intent of laws like this, or are they simply throwing their weight around, using the letter of the law to purposely cause harm against people who have really committed no crime?
What good will come out of ruining this girl’s life?
The sick, festering, mentally deficient and morally bankrupt prosecutors pushing for these charges and the mindlessly absolutistic police who are helping them, are complete and utter scum – not worthy to eat the soiled toilet paper this poor girl produces. They have demonstrated no measurable common sense in this and should be debarred, disbarred and fired – and preferably buried in a very deep cesspool somewhere, where they cannot infect the rest of the populace with their malignant cretinism!
I am becoming more and more convinced, that the whole damned planet is going stark, raving mad.
